Washburn Gallery (New York) showed these early works by Jackson Pollock at Art Basel Miami Beach. You will notice these are not the "drip" paintings most associated with the artist; they are earlier, more representational (even figurative) works.

In the late 1920s Pollock was enrolled in the Manual Arts High School in Los Angeles--this is the beginning of his formal study of art. These paintings come from a slightly later period when the artist had moved to New York City to study at the Art Students League. Through this time Pollock was heavily influenced by abstract art--particularly Picasso.
